USB Internet Dongles & Providers
Fancy going online while you are out and about? You can leech off a WiFi signal but why risk it when there is a much safer way to browse the web? For your safety, getting a dongle or mobile internet plan is much more ideal.Dongle deals are offered by top UK mobile networks. A dongle plan lets you browse the world wide web via the 3G network of a mobile phone company; hence, dongle deals are offered by these phone networks. Major service providers to choose from are 3, O2, Orange, Vodafone, Virgin, and T-Mobile.
Just like mobile phone or home broadband plans, you have a choice when it comes to the contract length of your dongle plan. Typically, your choices are 12, 18, and 24 months. There are also plans that last only 1 month. These are rolling monthly plans that are ideal for those who do not like having a long-term contract. These dongle plans also come with several options when it comes to the data allowance. You can get a deal with 1GB, 3GB, 5GB, or 15GB of data. The bigger the data allowance, the higher the monthly tariff, of course.
Most of these dongle plans will offer you the USB device for free. If you pick a deal with a cheap tariff or you choose a 1-month plan, though, you may be asked to buy the dongle first.
